Tempeh Fajitas

Tempeh works great as replacement for beef or chicken in fajitas because it's firm enough to slice into strips and marinate. In this recipe, it's grilled along with the veggies, adding even more flavor to the dish.

Veggie Sausage Pizzas

French bread pizzas are ideal for an easy weeknight meal, especially when the topping ingredients are items you probably already have on hand. You can adapt this recipe for the meat lovers by topping half of the bread slices with the meatless sausage called for in the recipe and the other half with regular sausage.

Tempeh Ratatouille

Traditional ratatouille features eggplant simmered with tomatoes, onions, garlic and spices and is usually served as an appetizer or side dish. In this main-dish version, tempeh replaces the eggplant and increases the protein.

Tofu with Red Peppers and Black Bean Paste

The pleasant saltiness of black bean paste contributes to the unique flavor profile of this stir-fry. Black bean paste is made from fermented black beans and is often used in Chinese, Korean, and Vietnamese cooking.

Tofu Burgers

Although pureed tofu forms the base of these burgers, the flavor comes from cashew nuts, sunflower seeds, mushrooms, cumin, and cayenne pepper. The burger mixture contains eggs and breadcrumbs, but no dairy products.

Look for prebaked minature phyllo dough shells in your supermarket's freezer section or at Middle Eastern markets. (There are usually 15 shells in a package.) Place the shells in minature muffin cups to prevent them from overbrowning.

"For one of my birthdays, all of my friends chipped in and gave me the smoker of my dreams, knowing that they would benefit from it. Ever since then, my suburban New Jersey neighbors have gotten to enjoy the smells of my Thanksgiving turkey as it smokes in the backyard."

Applewood chips lend a slightly sweet and fruity flavor to the meat. You can also try smoking the turkey with cherry or alder wood chips for more delicate smoked flavor.

Blended corn tortillas add a delicious masa flavor and give the chili extra body. We like to top ours with a dollop of sour cream and some shredded cheese to add a delicious creamy flavor, but for a hotter, meatier flavor, leave out these toppings. Regardless, this chili is perfect for a cozy night in.
